Another fucking week in fucking lockdown.
Yay.
There are political winners and losers.
WINNERS
Vaccination rates – The current fear gripping the country has at least spurred people to get vaccinated and we are seeing record numbers getting vaccinated.
ZB Hosts – The ZB Troll Farm are ecstatic that the city is still in lockdown so an endless buffet of grievance and blame can be served to frightened and furious listeners.
Bishop Brian Tamaki – Can play out his martyr syndrome for another week and go picnicking with Delta because Jesus is his vaccine.
National & ACT – Get to gloat without providing actual solutions.
Winston Peters – Manages to have his appalling disinformation eclipsed by Level 3 lockdown extension, will be thanking Delta personally.
Double Vaxxed – Feeling pretty smug in their Hermit Kingdoms right now.
LOSERS
Auckland, anywhere near Auckland, anyone who knows anyone in Auckland – The tension inside Auckland is unlike anything I’ve ever experienced before and anyone near us looks like they are equally terrified and furious at the same time.
Labour – Damned if they do, damned if they don’t.
CONCLUSION
The psychological damage of 2 months of house arrest is exploding everywhere – domestic violence, terrible acts of violence and a social media lynch mob that would put the KKK to shame.
Surviving the public health emergency and economic blow back of Covid will be one thing, but the psychological scars may never heal.
The specter of a very Covid Christmas looms.
Kindness isn’t easy, it’s hard and it demands more from us. All that can be done is to endure.
Endure comrades!
Endure!

The anger in Auckland will only increase when they see Sydney’s restrictions removed next week with more or less similar vaccination rates (assuming 1-jabbers get their second). I agree Bomber Auckland is a powder keg of anger right now.
But hey we get a “VAXXATHON” to look forward to on Saturday. Bet you all are as excited as me. And remember Bertie – this was John’s idea. Lol fucking lol.
Come on Frank, looking to Sydney is like watching an amateur science class experiment. I am not thinking, shit I wish I lived there. See how she goes in a couple of months time. They’re reliant on 1 dose as fully vaccinated equals only 73%.
Covid is covid, a balancing act. None of us like it but there’s few alternatives.
The only upside of the alternatives you pine for, like Sydney, is the community would have had a bigger tolerance for uneccesary death and serious illness.
Certain segments said the same thing regarding the UK. I remember someone with pink hair wailing that there was going to be some SUPER DOOPER CHIMERA covid virus due to them. Didn’t happen. Not even close.
Sydney was supposed to have it’s hospitals overrun. Did it? No. Was there a surge? Yes. Did their health system collapse? No.
Yes – I’ll see how they go in a couple of months – I’ll bet money that they are having Christmas with the family and planning their Christmas holidays.
Will we?

However there is this Frankie, it appears they are creaking at the seams.
The Socialist Republic of Victardia isn’t NSW. Surprise, surprise they have a cultish, socialist hard left head honcho as well.
If Fiji survived the surge, we will too.
Compare that to The Capitalist Republic of Sydney, where lives truly don’t matter. As they say in Sydney, it’s all about the money baby. Watching the news now, your sums and fear are way off Frankie, judging by the medical fraternity. The model shows 100 hospitalizations a week with the current 1.3 infection rate.
I’d certainly like to see where you get this information from Frankie..
“Sydney was supposed to have it’s hospitals overrun. Did it? No. Was there a surge? Yes. Did their health system collapse? No.” see below…

Please, please, please back up your claims?
Australia has more than 8 ICU beds for 100,000, we have 4.6. That is the difference that counts.
The difference that counts is our handling of covid. The link provided tells us they were overrun and not prepared due to their response. We are not overrun(yet), that is the difference.
FRank, you’re more Maus than IS-2……….
Haha Frankie, typical JK, claims the good stuff and blames everyone else on his bad stuff.
Up to now, there has been a social contract in which people have agreed to sacrifice their freedom for the overall well being because there was no other choice. As the vaccine levels move to 80% and beyond the majority are now being asked to continue to sacrifice their freedom so that the minority can continue to exercise their right not to vaccinate. This is increasingly untenable and Labour will struggle to continue with this approach.
So what happens when the mindless “bet the house on red” mRNA “vaccine” proponents realise that it is a) ineffective and b) has serious long term health implications? A “telethon” isn’t going to solve that conundrum. https://theexpose.uk/2021/10/10/comparison-reports-proves-vaccinated-developing-ade/
“National & ACT – Get to gloat without providing actual solutions.”
National and ACT can say “We told you so” regarding a lack of dedicated MIQ facilities, a six month delay in ordering the vaccine and the government’s inability to provide a single additional ICU bed.
